A female United States age , anonymous writes:

I broke up with a man three months ago. We see each other often due to my child's hobby. We had lunch last week and it went very well (were talking for 1 1/2 hours). He knows I have been meeting men on-line with no luck. He also has dated but, had not luck either. I have been in contact with him for the last few days through IM's and a phone call. I wanted to drop off a gift for his son's birthday as a surprise. He has his son all weekend so it was not possible. He mentioned going out to lunch again this Monday. I was thinking of mentioning to him that my lack of dating luck is due to the fact that I can't find anyone I like more than him. I think him mentioning meeting for lunch again (the second time in a week) possibly means that he is interested in getting back with me as well. I think both of us are afraid to take the next step.

Well you are the best judge of that. I personally wouldn't like someone telling me that they aren't having any luck dating.....or someone wanting to get back together because they can't find anyone else.

If the two of you can't resolve the reasons why you broke up the first time, then you are just wasting eachother's time. You need to set some boundaries with him and decide what it is you want from a relationship with him before you take him back in for a second go around.

Sounds positive that he is interested in being your friend at the very least and if you want more you just have to say so....don't hide your feelings or you will never find out.
